I thought this isn't possible: http://goo.gl/QTAUFb. This:

$(TOCENTRY cpptod.html, Converting C++ to D)
$(TOCENTRY pretod.html, The C Preprocessor vs D)
$(TOCENTRY cppcontracts.html, D Contract Programming vs C++)

$(TOCENTRIES
comparison, D Feature List,
builtin, Rationale for Builtins,
ctod, Converting C to D,
cpptod, Converting C++ to D,
pretod, The C Preprocessor vs D,

(The .html elimination is a minor detail.)
The trick is to recurse twice using $+ every time:
TOCENTRIES=$(TOCENTRY $1, $2) $(TOCENTRIES_REC $+)
TOCENTRIES_REC=$(TOCENTRIES $+)
Thought this is worth sharing. We could simplify a few more things
with this.
Two thoughts:
1. Need to add this to the Ddoc documentation! Or at least a tip sheet
on Ddoc.
Who wanna do that? Other good examples are ENUMERATE and ITEMIZE.
2. Why use url shorteners like http://goo.gl/QTAUFb ? I don't generally
care to click on links that I have no idea where they go. Here's the
real link:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/776/files#diff-582d0a2140b180aec5d08a9e6176399aR71
Looks better on the page.
